Exciting color variations

 

Hello everyone! This is Masuda from Nine Tailor Shop.

For some reason, I've recently gotten hooked on drawing with crayons. It's fun how the color payoff differs completely depending on the drawing material, whether it's something that turns powdery like chalk or something that allows for beautiful color blending. Before I knew it, I was drawing nothing but my cats.

 

This time, I'd like to introduce these caps, which come in such a rich variety of colors that they're sure to leave you indecisive!

N-1427 / Chicory Cap

 

These caps have beautiful, not-too-vibrant colors with exquisite nuances.

And there's a good reason for that.

Each one is hand-dyed and sun-dried by artisans.

Of course, if dyed quickly and uniformly by machine at high temperature and pressure, it would be faster. However, the process of pulling and applying pressure to the fabric can crush or stretch the fibers, resulting in a flat, industrial product feel.

By hand-dyeing without applying mechanical pressure or tension to the fabric, the fabric retains its original softness and resilience, creating subtle unevenness and depth that isn't too uniform.

Additionally, after dyeing, they are hand-sun-dried.

By slowly removing excess moisture in the sunlight, the fabric becomes fluffy, retaining its natural texture, resulting in a slightly soft, natural color and texture.

The more you wear it, the better the fading you can enjoy, so please wear it a lot!

 

Even just changing the color of your cap can create a different impression.

During this time of year, when you can go out in just a shirt, this is how I would combine it.

Since the traditional baseball cap shape has been updated to an easy-to-wear, urban form, simply pairing it with a shirt and jeans creates a modern impression.

 

By pairing spring-like pastel colors with slightly darker, similar tones, you can achieve a well-coordinated look.

You can also go for a full spring feel by pairing lighter pastel colors.


Black, which goes well with anything, is also a good choice.

It's not a pure black, so the soft impression of the cap enhances a monochrome outfit.

A wide range of colors to fulfill your desire for "I want a cap in this color" or "I want something to add a pop of color to my styling."

 

N-1427 / Chicory Cap (Multi)

Next, I'd like to introduce this eye-catching color from the same series.

At first glance, it has a cute atmosphere, but the carefully layered painted pattern, the moderately yellowish body color, and the degree of black painting all combine to create an elegant impression.

This one is 100% cotton, but it has a moderate sheerness and a smooth feel.

It's hand-designed based on Liberty print's Pepper, a combination of small flowers and dots that you've probably seen before.

This time I paired it with a white shirt, but in midsummer, just wearing this with an oversized white tee would look super cool!

For those who want a slightly more subdued look, the C. Grey Multi is also recommended.

Have you decided which color you want?

The downside of having so many color options is that they sell out quickly. For example, there are only 4 Mustard caps left!

I remember feeling apologetic many times last year when asked, "Do you still have this color?"

So, if you know which color you want, I highly recommend getting it early!

Well then, see you again!

Masuda
